Best Day Ever: Irina Shayk's 'Sports Illustrated' Cover Experience

Irina Shayk Many girls will never forget their first kiss, or the first time they buy a pair of designer shoes. But supermodels are a little different from regular folk.

Irina Shayk's most memorable experience involves a magazine cover and David Letterman. When we sat down to chat with Irina, she let us in on what she describes as the "best day of my life." She says: When I was at [the] David Letterman show with nine other Sports Illustrated models, I had no idea that I will be on the cover! And when the curtain [fell] down and I saw the cover, I was so happy that I even cried…it was like living in a fairytale! I always loved working with SI, and of course I dreamt about being on the cover as all the SI models do. But when my dream came true, it was a very special moment for me.Sounds like a pretty amazing day to us!
